Tk_OwnSelection (3)
make a window the owner of the primary selection
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_OwnSelection(tkwin, selection, proc, clientData)
ARGUMENTS
Tk_LostSelProc clientData
Tk_Window tkwin in
Window that is to become new selection owner.
Atom selection in
The name of the selection to be owned, such as XA_PRIMARY.
Tk_LostSelProc *proc in
Procedure to invoke when tkwin loses selection ownership later.
ClientData clientData in
Arbitrary one-word value to pass to proc.
DESCRIPTION
Tk_OwnSelection arranges for tkwin to become the
new owner of the selection specified by the atom
selection. After this call completes, future requests
for the selection will be directed to handlers created for
tkwin using Tk_CreateSelHandler. When tkwin
eventually loses the selection ownership, proc will be
invoked so that the window can clean itself up (e.g. by
unhighlighting the selection). Proc should have arguments and
result that match the type Tk_LostSelProc:
typedef void Tk_LostSelProc(ClientData clientData);
The clientData parameter to proc is a copy of the
clientData argument given to Tk_OwnSelection, and is
usually a pointer to a data structure containing application-specific
information about tkwin.

'\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk
'\" manual entries.
'\"
'\" .AP type name in/out ?indent?
'\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
'\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",
'\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg,
'\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be
'\" needed; use .AS below instead)
'\"
'\" .AS ?type? ?name?
'\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and
'\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
'\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.
'\"
'\" .BS
'\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be
'\" enclosed in one large box.
'\"
'\" .BE
'\" End of box enclosure.
'\"
'\" .CS
'\" Begin code excerpt.
'\"
'\" .CE
'\" End code excerpt.
'\"
'\" .VS ?version? ?br?
'\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
'\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording
'\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
'\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument
'\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
'\"
'\" .VE
'\" End of vertical sidebar.
'\"
'\" .DS
'\" Begin an indented unfilled display.
'\"
'\" .DE
'\" End of indented unfilled display.
'\"
'\" .SO
'\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The
'\" options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated
'\" by tabs.
'\"
'\" .SE
'\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
'\"
'\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
'\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the
'\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives
'\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives
'\" the option's class in the option database.
'\"
'\" .UL arg1 arg2
'\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally.
